we were out there when the ronald reagan steamed into the rescue, and basically what happened is that the reagan began circling the splendor about 1,500 yards away, and then used helicopters to shuttle in some of the vital supplies that were needed. the reagan by the way, was on maneuvers when suddenly the mission change and imagine what was that was like for the pilots and crew members who said you will help a cruise ship in distress. it is a different mission for some of the navy pilots who in the past had been supporting american troops in iraq and afghanistan, wolf. >> what we do is that obviously, there is goods and bad in the middle of warfare and doing your job, but this is on the upside, because we are helping out people in distress and opportunity to improve the lives of people who were in dire straits, so it is a great opportunity. >> reporter: now, those helicopter pilots and the cruise members said they could see the passengers aboard the carnivale cruise ship and said they were greeted with waves and support and many of the passengers were taking pictures and using video

reagan and i'm paraphrasing this and using it differently, the state of the union is rather like a pile of manure. there's a pony in there somewhere, but this one isn't the pony. >> that's a great start, daria. we still see despite all the promises -- fred, it's important our viewers on cnn understand. we are very apolitical. we are political atheists. we only see things as we see them from the street. >> from the pocketbook. >> am i hearing you all say it can't be up to the president then to create these jobs? >> the only thing that the government has been able to create in the way of jobs has been more government jobs. the fact of the matter is, government doesn't really create anything. government is there to back-stop it when necessary. government is certainly there to protect us and keep the rule of law over the land, but the fact of the matter is, it is the private sector that does the creation. so this whole concept that the state of the union speech, we're going to make these jobs and we are going to spend and allocate more money we don't have to create them is bogus. >> doesn't

they are looking for ronald reagan. one of the running gags at this pint in orlando over the weekend, i heard two or three times, is we are looking for ronald reagan and we can't even find fred thompson, he was the reagan wannabe of the last cycle. >> yes. but then there you are in florida, how about the straw poll win for herman cain. that's what so many people are talking about today. i think he got like seven standing ovations just before the vote. what is it? is it his 9-9-9 tax plane? is that what is resonating with people? >> i heard 9-9-9 over and over again. it started like a yermian chant. people really like it. sounds simple. sounds easy. 9% individual inkuks tax. 9% corporate tax. 9% sales tax and we are said and done. i think there are details to get into it as to whether that is workable. also he is very charismatic speaker, as you said. he got seven standing ovations. so much resistance to getting haled to the choice between romney and perry. another thing that i heard resistance to romney and perry is, th

. >>> joining me now to talk about the nation's jobs problem and much more david stockman, ronald reagan's budget director, and robert reich was secretary of labor under president clinton. they have many more credentials, but that will do for now. welcome back to you both. bob, let me start with you. the administration is now thinking about further tax cuts, payroll tax cuts and things like that. wouldn't it be sensible if the great problem is jobs and the large part of that problem is in the construction industry, wouldn't it be sensible for the government to simply try to employ these people directly? i don't mean the government employing them but do roads, bridge, and highways which puts private contractors back into the hiring business and effectively create jobs directly, rather than hoping that people who get tax cuts will start spending again? >> i think that's right, fareed. i think it is useful because i think it's possible that the republicans would agree to exempting, let's say, the first $20,000 of income from the payroll tax for a year. that would put money directly in people'
